I don't think it's about removing access per se. It is more about making the story radioactive to Dem voterbase - (upper-)middle class suburban white collar demographic. To ensure that their loyal voterbase stays loyal. Same thing happened with Andrew Cuomo. It was an elaborate play designed to make Dem voterbase to believe how amazing Dems are at handling COVID. Meanwhile dilligent citizens knew what Cuomo had done with the nrusing homes. The moment Biden took office Cuomo was thrown under bus because Dems knew due to his nursing home scandal he has become a liability. The longer he stays in the office the more it'll draw attention to Dems' creafully written PR plot.
